Definitions
- the present invention relates to a plug for access opening of a radiographic control source in a pipe or an appliance, in particular for the control of welds near this opening.
- the known plugs for radiographic source access openings are solid bottom, and welded to the corresponding piping or device after control by the radiographic source of the weld (s) to be examined. They are no longer reusable if you want to recheck the welds after a certain operating time of the piping or the device. It would indeed be necessary to eliminate the weld before being able to unscrew the plug, which is likely to degrade the surface of the tube or the device. When we want to carry out a new control, we therefore pierce a new opening in the wall, then close this opening after the control using a new plug, also non-reusable. This is a relatively long and costly operation, and leads to successive drilling of the wall at close points.
- the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks, and to provide a plug for such access openings which makes it possible to carry out checks by a radiographic source - as many times as desired and in one very short time.
- the plug according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises an external cylindrical element with an open bottom, with internal thread, welded on the wall of the pipe or apparatus and projecting therefrom, and a cylindrical element internal, solid bottom, with external thread, screwed onto the internal thread of the external element and welded on the lips by its upper edge to the upper edge of the external element, and provided with internal means making it possible to unscrew it.
- these internal means are constituted by an internal thread of the latter, with a pitch opposite to the pitch of its external thread, and making it possible to unscrew it using a pitch screw of the same direction.
- the wall 1 of the piping comprises an external surface 2 and an internal surface 3.
- This piping comprises a weld bead 4 whose compactness is desired to be checked periodically by radiographic control.
- the wall is pierced with a cylindrical hole 5.
- a first plug 6 is fixed in the bore 7 of the hole 5, for example by screwing in a thread. It is also fixed to the wall by a circumferential weld 8.
- the internal part 9 of the fixed plug 6 is provided with an internal thread 10, into which is screwed the external thread of the removable plug 11.
- the latter is fixed to the fixed plug 6 by a weld on the lips 12.
- It is also provided with an internal left-hand thread 13 with which an extraction tool can be engaged, constituted by a left-hand screw.
- the first radiographic control is carried out. Then the probe is removed, grease the external thread of the removable plug 11 using a grease resistant to high temperatures, for example a graphite grease or a silicone grease, and screw this plug into the fixed plug. Then the edges of the two plugs are welded by the lip seal 12.
- a grease resistant to high temperatures for example a graphite grease or a silicone grease
- the weld on the lip 12 is eliminated, preferably by grinding, this operation can be very rapid.
- We engage a key with left-hand thread corresponding to that of the internal thread 13 of the removable plug in this thread then unscrews the removable plug 11 from the fixed plug and removes it. We can then introduce the radiographic probe and carry out the weld control.
- the probe After carrying out the radiographic control, the probe is removed, screw the removable cap back into the fixed cap, then im mobilizes by a new weld on lips. The operation can be repeated many times.
